Captions you want,eh?.....
so...we reckon it goes like this...from left to right we have....Dean Emmerson, Colin Jacka, John Hozmec , Geoff Moffit, Peter Leech with the dumb hat and the gent with the charming locks might be me...... .....not sure who had their head in the Chundertaker but it may have been Lyndon Piper , who also had bulk hair ...and the venue is the 1st Nats at Narrandera in 1973.....

....yep, well spotted young Rodney.....Coz's '34 suffered from some teething issues on it's first big outing to Mt.Gambier in '70.....problems with the timing chain on the tri-powered 389 Poncho saw it arrive and leave MtGambier on a rope.......

.....but once Geoff got it sorted out....faaark....could it move...... .....we were lucky enough to have Coz's car as a wedding car along with Barry Wilson's wild custom '33 sedan.....it was a bit of fun.....

,,,,,,Ok then who is the young fella with the 34 Roadster ?,,,

[rog]

Interesting, lots of channelled cars! Gerry's gonna love these picks

[Oldcol]

a very young Alan Cusworth with '34....I think it was his Dad's car from memory.....all these pics are from Alan's album.....


a bit later on....this is in the street beside Peter Eames house in Preston , '34 Coupe of Alan Cusworth , 36 Coupe of Bill Barling , '35 Sedan of Peter Leech and at the back where it usually ended up was Eames' Rugby Tub.....

Cusworth again.....


this one is Narrandera Nats '73 , Dean Emmersom and Bill Barling , probably sayin' something along the lines of " what's with all the fuckin' lates?....." ....eloquent was Bill......

and leading we have Colin Jacka , John Tauschke in the '40 fronted Coupe and Alan Wieland in the '34
